FESCO put the second vessel on the line connecting Russia and Vietnam
As part of the development of the FESCO VIETNAM DIRECT LINE (FVDL) regular maritime service connecting the ports of Vietnam with the Vladivostok Commercial Sea Port (VMTP, a member of the FESCO Group), the FESCO Transport Group delivered a second vessel for operation on the line.
Thus, the container service will be served by two container ships - A HOUOU with a capacity of 850 TEU and BAL BOAN - 750 TEU.
The line operates along the route Vladivostok - Haiphong (Vietnam) - Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam) - Vladivostok. Regularity - 2 times a month. Transit time on the way from VMTP to the ports of Vietnam is 9–12 days.
From November 1, the port of Ho Chi Minh City will also act as a transshipment port when sending containerized cargo from Thailand, Malaysia, India and Pakistan to Russia, which will reduce the delivery time of cargo between the countries of the Asia-Pacific region and the ports of the Far East.
FESCO launched a regular FVDL sea line in May 2022. During this time, more than 6.5 thousand TEU were transported in both directions.
